Bohemia is the best in my opinion..followed closely by Negra Modelo, a near third is Pacifico , next in fourth is Tecate, followed by Dos Equis Lager. Those to avoid, piss beer #1.. Corona.. piss beer #2 Carta Blanca. To those who drink these sad representations of a real Mexican beer, I feel for ya.
My #1 Mexican beer has to be Dos XX (in the green bottle). Sol is OK. Tecate tastes like water, and Corona is overrated. Modelo Especial is good, but I can only find it in cans. I like Negro Modelo better though, and thankfully I can only find it in bottles. I can't stand Bohemia or Pacifico.
Still... I usually just make my life easy and buy Guinness (or MGD if I'm broke). As much as I like Dos XX, it's no Guinness.
Anybody ever tried Christmas Beer? I'm sure that's not the name of it but that's what they called it when I was in Germany, they sold it around the holidays. In fact I think I saw some of it at HEB this past holiday season but I can't be sure.
I tried Bohemia tonight and Tecate. Tecate was the winner. I drank both with Patron. Yum Yum!!
I even went out and bought a 12 of Tecate.....Yew Haw!! Good stuff!
I usually have to sell both these brands at my job every 10 seconds. And the smell of beer is HORRIBLE when stocked together in a fridge. I am the BEER MASTER!
And now you are my friend. Deal with it.....please...
Paulaner Hefe-Weizen was another beer I tried in Germany. It was pretty good, and I don't even like beer.
Sol... next question
Shat up! Between Tecate and Bohemia....Tecate wins. I need two more challengers.
haha, ok...
mississippi mud or black hook
You better not be giving crap to drink....ya here boy?!!
Bing, Bing, Bing! German brews blow everything else out of the water. but since this is a topic about mexican beers drink modelo or corona. both are pretty much american owned!
Tecate is only good with salt. Corona with lime is decent. I don't like Dos Equis for some reason. I've never had Bohemia or the others you guys mentioned.
Has anybody tried the German import St. Pauls Girl? The girl on the cover is hot hot hot.
That's one of my favorite beers, though it smells nasty. Everyone makes fun of me for drinking it.
I think Patrón is the most overrated tequila I've ever had. It's expensive as , and I don't think Mexicans actually drink it. Even El Jimador beats Patrón IMO, and El Jimador is ridiculously cheap in Mexico. Herradurra, El Conquistador, and Don Julio Añejos all put Patrón to shame IMO, and they're all the price of Patrón or less.
So what mexican beer should I be asking for? In Australia the only mexican beer I have seen that I can remember is Corona, of course only ever drink it with lemon/lime. It's ok, nothing great though.
So I should be asking around to see if anywhere has Dos Equis huh?
You have stumbled upon a beer drinking secret. If you have to drink a beer that you don't like, add lime and salt and it becomes passable.maybe that's why it needed lime?
I discovered that with Pearl once. It doesn't have to be Mexican beer to add lime and salt.
I'm also very fond of Amstel Light.
Yum.
I cannot stand Samuel Adams, but like Sam Adams Light. I haven't figured that one out, yet.
an anejo should taste better because it is aged at least a year. patron silver is not an anejo tequila. patron makes a reposado and a anejo.
and what isn't cheap in mexico! haha
The Anejo 1800 is some good stuff.
Now try Pacifico or Modelo Especial in a bottle against Tecate.( Since you have so much tecate....or did you drink it all???)
El Jimador went the cheap route because it is no longer 100% agave. It is now a blend. Corralejo seems to be the most popular (consumed) tequila right now, well at least within my circle of acquantences (SP). I prefer don Julio. Also Don Porfidio Anejo is very good, but freaking expensive.
To whomever brought up the Christmas beer, I think the name of it is Nochebuena.
OK, got to go call my AA councelor now...
peace
you know, after a few shots of tequila, or a few bottles of brew....can you still taste it?
seriously, cuz, i'm not much of a drinking connoisseur and i don't normally drink dark beers, i've never drank guiness, that paintball in the can thing is intimidating....
and when i drank shiner the other day, by the third glass? it was pretty smooth.
and i know if i'm on my 3rd texas tea or tequila sunrise, it's all the same by that time...
are you a sipper? cuz i drink anything like it's water. well, maybe i'll sip coffee. but that's it, damn it.
in puerto rico? the had medalla. the ll is like a j sound though. good stuff.
i think i fall in love with whatever beer is available when i'm not at home.
